PT-8000A Operating Manual v2.00.33
When toggling between MAIN- and SUB-RX the actual settings of the controls
used at last are not transferred to the new active RX – instead the former
settings of this RX are the actual one – until they are overwritten by the
respective control.
The squelch threshold set to the RX working in the background will stay the
Example
actual one when this RX becomes the active – until one touches the squelch
control to set the threshold to a new setting.
The large S-meter is always allocated to the active RX. The smaller S-meter is
indicating the field strength of the RX working in the background.
Transmitting (TX) is only possible when MAIN-RX is the active one and SUB-RX
is working in the background.
When transmitting the SUB-RX may be used to monitor own RF-signal.
Receiving with SUB-RX on a separate antenna is limited however: Excessive
field strength may trip the protection circuits. Receiving at frequencies adjacent
to the transmitting frequency may be limited even by the superior dynamic
characteristics of the PT-8000A receivers - which are of course finite.
